Some things just never stop being cool, like robots, but some things get old really fast, like cheap plastic toys that need batteries. Enter the Cubebot, the transforming, foldable robot that doesn’t need AA’s and won’t break (possibly ever). Made of durable beech wood and sporting stretchy elastic-band muscles, this bot folds into dozens of poses, right down to a perfect square. We love that this funky little guy will withstand years of play, and that he doesn’t break the bank doing it. ($10, available from rockprettykids.ca)
